BOSCHUNG

Boschung makes year-round equipment for airports, towns and roads to keep surfaces safe. The range covers snow removal, de-icing, detection and sweeping. The company is Swiss and family-owned.

The text says Marcel Boschung Senior started it in 1947 in a garage in Schmitten, Switzerland. Today it has over 160 people at its headquarters in Switzerland and over 700 worldwide. It runs 12 offices in 11 countries. The site says its equipment cleans surfaces at large airports and busy highways.

The company lists milestones. In 1964 it made an Ice Early Warning System, a measuring instrument for roads and runways. The Pony vehicle came in 1970. In 1979 it released Fixed Automated Spraying Technology, which stops ice forming without staff. The Jetbroom, a high-speed snow removal machine made for runways and highways, followed in 1985.
